Full Description

This is the green Correct It pad, a vivid green foam disc with a centre hole, in the 135mm (5.5in) size. It is the polishing pad of the system, the step after the orange cutting pad.

Green is the soft polishing pad. Autobrite lists it for fine scratches, swirl marks, holograms and marring on modern paint, including hard German clear coat.

Correct It is Autobrite Direct's colour coded pad system for its DA-21mm and DA-12mm dual action polishers. The pads are made from German open cell foam. A hole through the centre lets air through to keep the temperature steady and helps line the pad up on the hook and loop backing plate, a denser foam layer cuts vibration and heat, and the bevelled edge keeps the backing plate away from the paint.

Expert Notes

The green Correct It pad is the soft polishing pad in Autobrite Direct's colour coded foam system, sized at 135mm and designed around the brand's DA-21mm and DA-12mm dual action polishers. It is made from German open cell foam with a centre vent hole, a denser foam layer that reduces vibration and heat transfer, and a bevelled edge that guards against backing plate contact. Use it for fine scratches, swirl marks, holograms and marring, including medium to deep marks on hard German clear coat, paired with a medium cut polish such as Correct It Enrich. Keep it separate from your cutting pads, and have a few green pads ready so each one can be cleaned between sections.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Modern factory paint
  • Hard German clear coat
  • Lightly swirled paintwork
  • Fine scratches
  • Hologrammed paint
  • Marred clear coat
  • Car and van bodywork

Caution: Even a soft polishing pad removes some clear coat. Check paint depth, keep the pad off edges and body lines, and start and stop the machine on the panel.

How To Use

Using it

  1. Centre the pad on a clean hook and loop backing plate, using the middle hole to line it up.
  2. Prime the pad face with a polish such as Correct It Enrich.
  3. Place the pad flat on the panel before starting the machine.
  4. Spread the polish at low speed, then raise the speed to work the section.
  5. Keep the pad flat with light, even pressure and check the panel temperature.
  6. Stop the machine with the pad on the panel and wipe off the residue.

Cleaning and storage

  1. Clean the pad face with a pad brush or compressed air between sections.
  2. Wash the pad in warm water with a pad cleaner after use and rinse thoroughly.
  3. Squeeze out the water gently without wringing or twisting the foam.
  4. Air dry away from direct heat before storing.
  5. Keep polishing pads separate from cutting and finishing pads.

Top Tip: Keep a dedicated green pad for each polish you use so residues never mix between stages.

Performance Benefits

  • Removes fine scratches and swirl marks
  • Handles medium to deep marks
  • Vents heat through the centre hole
  • Dense layer reduces machine vibration
  • Bevelled edge guards against plate contact
  • Open cell foam cleans out easily

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the green Correct It pad for?

The green pad is the soft polishing pad in the Autobrite Direct Correct It system. It removes fine scratches, swirl marks, holograms and marring, and suits medium to deep marks on hard German clear coat.

What size is this pad?

This is the 135mm green Correct It polishing pad. Make sure your backing plate suits a pad of this diameter.

Which machines is it designed for?

It was designed for the Autobrite Direct DA-21mm and DA-12mm dual action polishers and fits a hook and loop backing plate.

Which polish should I use with it?

The green pad pairs with Enrich, the medium cut polish in the Correct It range. The colour coding makes the matching pad and polish easy to spot.

Why is there a hole in the middle?

The centre hole lets air vent through the pad to help keep temperatures stable, and it helps you line the pad up on the backing plate.

What does the bevelled edge do?

The bevelled edge gives better control and stability and acts as a barrier against the backing plate touching the paint.

How do I clean the pad?

Brush or blow out the pad face between sections, then wash it in warm water with a pad cleaner after use and let it air dry away from direct heat.

  4. Clean the pad face between every section.
  5. Use light, even pressure for a clean finish.

The Brand

Autobrite Direct

Autobrite Direct is a UK car detailing brand founded in 2005 that describes itself as built by detailers, for detailers. Magifoam snow foam, Crystal glass cleaner and Tyregloss date from its early years. In 2026 the brand was relaunched by Technical Brands UK & Ireland Limited, of County Antrim, which had been the official Autobrite Direct reseller in Ireland; the earlier company, Autobrite Direct Limited, no longer trades. The new operator says it has brought back key legacy formulas and that the products are manufactured in the UK.

At The Drivers HQ we stock Autobrite Direct online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop. Popular choices include Magifoam, Purple Velvet shampoo and Project 64.

Autobrite wash, wheels and decontamination

Pre-wash and snow foam. Citrus Wash is a citrus oil pre-wash and all purpose cleaner for paint, plastic, vinyl and rubber, diluted 100:1 for light cleaning, 50:1 for a general pre-wash, 30:1 for heavy grime and 10:1 for degreasing. Stronger mixes can reduce wax or sealant, so Autobrite suggests 50:1 or weaker for maintenance washes. Magifoam is a stable, wax and sealant safe snow foam: 100 to 200ml in the lance, topped up with water, left to dwell but never to dry. Custard Magifoam is the vanilla custard scented version, and the thick mousse style Jelly Bean and Parma Violet Super Foams suit lighter summer dirt.

Shampoos. Purple Velvet is a pH neutral shampoo with a Juicy Fruit scent that dilutes up to 1500:1, a 10ml capful in 15 litres. Banana Gloss is pH neutral and kind to existing wax, and Ceramic Infused Shampoo adds a slick, hydrophobic layer, used at 400:1 in the bucket or straight onto the mitt. Wash with the Synthetic Wool Wash Mitt and a 20 litre Detailing Bucket in black or clear, each with a Gamma Seal lid and Dirt Guard; the Bucket Organiser fits most 20 litre buckets and holds bottles, mitts and brushes.

Wheels, tyres and decontamination. BriteGel is a lemon and lime scented, non-acidic wheel gel that clings to the wheel and tyre, and Very Cherry Non Acidic is a high foaming, acid free wheel cleaner for painted and clear coated wheels. Purple Rain is a ready to use gel fallout remover for wheels and bodywork that turns purple as it dissolves iron: do not dilute it, and keep it off damaged or unlacquered paint and alloys. Just The Tonic is a solvent tar and glue remover that also lifts sticker glue and, inside, ink, oil and chewing gum from carpets. Tyregloss is a cherry scented tyre dressing: a little for satin, more for high gloss.

Autobrite polishing, protection, glass and interior

Paint correction. The Correct It compounds are made for modern ceramic and scratch resistant clear coats as well as hard German paint: Restore is the heavy cut, rated to remove 1500 grit sanding marks, Enrich is a medium one step cut and finish, and Final Finish is the anti-hologram finishing polish. The 135mm pads are colour coded: orange for cutting and green for polishing, both German open cell foam, with the Hybrid Wool Ultracut and Correct It PRO microfibre pads for faster correction.

Protection and gloss. Prep-It removes polishing oils and residue before a coating, sealant or wax. Ultraslick is a polymer sealant for paint, glass, chrome and unpainted plastics in a 250ml atomiser bottle, and Carbanuba is a banana scented cream wax of carnauba, montan and microcrystalline waxes. Magiseal is a water based, SiO2 infused coating: 100ml with 400ml of water in a foam lance, or 25ml with 475ml in a trigger, rinsed straight off, for two to three months of protection. Project 64 is a pH neutral spray, wipe and buff gloss enhancer, Quickshine works as a quick detailer, waterless wash or clay lubricant, and Top Gloss is a wax drying aid. Apply them with the foam applicators, six to a pack, and polish bright metal with Metalworx.

Glass. Crystal has been in the range since 2005: a fast flash-off glass cleaner, safe on glass, mirrors and window tints. Clear View polishes away bug splatter, fallout and watermarks with no silicones or waxes, ready for Repel, a rain repellent that Autobrite says beads water off from around 30mph. Buff with The Enforcer, a 55 x 63cm, 300gsm glass towel.

Interior and kit. Fab is a high foaming upholstery cleaner and pre-spotter, Magic Carpet a low foaming fabric cleaner with odour neutralisers, and the Alcantara Cleaner is solvent free and water based for Alcantara and suede. Jaffa Clean degreases and protects engine bays and door shuts, and the Soft White Drill Brush (5in) scrubs carpets and mats. Carry it all in the Detailing Holdall or Detailing Kit Bag, or start with the boxed Essential Detailing Kit.
